Gravitational radiation drives compact binaries through an inspiral phase towards a final coalescence. For binaries with\textit{spin, mass quadrupole and magnetic dipole moments}, various contributions add to this process, which is…
The magnetic white dwarfs (MWDs) are found either isolated or in interacting binaries. They divide into two groups: a high field group (0.1-1,000MegaGauss) comprising some 13% of all white dwarfs (WDs), and a low field group (B<0.1MG) whose…
Starting with a post-Newtonian description of compact binary systems, we derive a set of equations that describes the evolution of the orbital angular momentum and both spin vectors during inspiral. We find regions of phase space that…

The aim of this work is twofold: (i) to properly define a wave-generation formalism for compact-supported sources embedded in Einstein-Maxwell theory, relying on matched post-Newtonian and multipolar-post-Minkowskian expansions; (ii) to…
We discuss the first available binary evolution models which include up-to-date rotational physics for both components, as well as angular momentum accretion and spin-orbit coupling. These models allow a self-consistent computation of the…
We discuss the mass-radius (M-R) relations for low-mass (M<0.1 Msun) white dwarfs (WDs) of arbitrary degeneracy and evolved (He, C, O) composition. We do so with both a simple analytical model and models calculated by integration of…
